So I've looked this up and have found nothing. I have pretty much lost hope of playing Gundam Battle Assault 2 again. However I decided to post here and look for an answer.

I want to play Gundam Battle Assault 2 on PSP, however, it crashes way too much (always on street mode and mostly but not always on VS CPU) and I can't get it to work 100%. Occasionally it works, but it crashes on street mode and isn't very playable without the extra unlockable characters. I am on 6.60 CFW. I have ME and Pro C2 installed. ME delivers more promising results but still crashes. Pro crashes after the intro. I have POPSLoader and have tried many POPS, but none work like I want them to. Does anyone know how I need to configure the game? Which POPS works? I would not like to downgrade, by the way.

As to what to change it to IDK :/

Okay, I'll try changing it to Gundam Battle Assault 1.

I have already tried POPS 3.40. However I haven't tried POPS 3.30. If it matters, POPS 6.60 and 3.40 usually gets the farthest before crashing. Also, if it matters, I can sometimes get into a fight, and sometimes, after the fight, it doesn't crash and actually goes back to the menu. (In VS CPU mode)

UPDATE: Now it returns me to the XMB when I select a POPS, but the original from flash doesn't. Just to be sure I didn't corrupt my POPS, I tried it on a game that works perfectly (Armored Core) and it booted fine. I'll just recompile the game, and change the ID while I'm at it.

UPDATE 2: I remade the EBOOT and set the compression level to 0, and the game ID is for Gundam Battle Assault (01226) but when I ran it with the original POPS from flash it crashed my PSP; black screen, no buttons work. On 3.30 POPS, it still boots me out with:

The game could not be started.
(80000004)

Now, Armored Core kicks me out to the XMB on 3.30 with the same error.

UPDATE 3: All of that was tested on 6.60 ME, I launched PRO C2 and the game boots on 3.30.
UPDATE 4: Wow, it works on 3.30 with PRO CFW! (Street mode and VERSUS CPU) I'm going to test it a bit more before I wave victory flags.
UPDATE 5: I exited the game and launched it again, and it still works fine. I am assuming it is perfect now. I'll come back if there are any issues. Also, is there a way to play multiplayer? My brother and I love this game but he lost the disc at a friend's ._. which is why I wanted it on PSP (to play). If it isn't possible to play multiplayer, then I'll just figure out how to get it working on Wii. I already searched the multiplayer topic, but lots of old threads came up. If anyone can tell me how to play multiplayer or if it is possible, I'd be grateful. Relevant information: Both PSPs are 2001, Pro C2 6.60.

Also just wanted to say that I couldn't beat street mode with Deathscythe because of Neue Ziel >_<

That's too bad. Guess I'm setting it up on my Wii again. But it probably won't work there. >_<
Anyway, thanks for the help! It works (near) perfectly! (Near meaning the game froze once) I beat street mode now, and have all my... I just noticed Big Zam is missing ._.
